Low Dose CT Screening – Early detection makes lung cancer easier to treat!
Early detection of lung cancer can be challenging, but screening can find it before symptoms appear.
If found early, the five-year survival rate can be as high as 65%. Survival rates are estimates and are often based on previous outcomes of large numbers of people, but they can’t predict what will happen in each individuals case.
Who Should Be Screened:
- Screening is not for everyone. It is recommended for people at high risk, using a low-dose CT (LDCT) scan.
You may be considered high risk if you:
- Are 50–80 years old
- Have a 20 pack-year smoking history (e.g., 1 pack/day for 20 years, or 2 packs/day for 10 years)
- Currently smoke or quit within the last 15 years
Next Steps:
- Ask your doctor or provider how these numbers apply to you.
- In Louisiana, lung cancer screenings are covered by most insurance plans. Several low to no-cost screenings and support services are available to uninsured residents.
- A physicians’ order is required.
